** EAR CLEANING ENDOSCOPE TOOL **
---------------------------------
SAY GOODBYE TO COTTON SWABS!
Q-tips and cotton swabs can jam dirt, earwax, and debris deeper into your e=
ar canal. With the EarScout endoscope, you can safely view and clean your =
ears at-home. Don=E2=80=99t be tempted to try to remove the buildup with =
a cotton swab. That pushes the wax deeper inside, where it can get stuck. =
The EarScout is much safer, since you can see how far you are going into t=
he ear canal and continually check to see if there is any wax left. This =
endoscope is not only for cleaning earwax. You can also use it to inspect =
your eardrum, mouth, throat, nasal cavity, or scalp.=20

<!--Dr. David Rhoiney, a 36-year-old U.S. Navy surgeon, who is Black, s=
tarted a free blog about personal finance in April 2020, after he saw frien=
ds lose jobs and resort to GoFundMe accounts to help cover expenses. He had=
gotten into investing after going through financial hell early in adulthoo=
d. ?The back-and-forth is largely playful,? he says of Reddit?s finance for=
ums. ?The reality is, unless you?re in on it, you won?t understand the inte=
ntion of it. It?s like a locker room.? Rhoiney?s a former student athlete, =
but he still prefers some of the more low-key investing communities on YouT=
ube and Twitter to Reddit?s boisterousness.=20
One such investing community that has exploded in popularity over the past =
couple of years focuses on cryptocurrencies, the long-mocked digital coins =
that are now collectively worth trillions of dollars. ?Crypto people,? who =
have repeatedly made finance hashtags trend higher on social media than new=
s and entertainment topics (something once unimaginable), use a mix of earn=
est analytical threads, virtual conferences, ads, and waves of humorous mem=
es to boost their various digital coins and NFTs. This includes the merry h=
olders of Dogecoin, which has a market value in the tens of billions of dol=
lars, yet began as a joking homage from an IBM engineer and an Adobe engine=
er to the beloved meme about Shiba Inus. The #dogefamily, as many of its me=
mbers call it, has a bubblier feel than the aspirational-alpha-male bravado=
that surrounds some other headline-grabbing web forums.=20
?One of the reasons I love it? It?s a big melting pot,? Jenny Ta, a former =
Wall Street trader who now invests heavily in Dogecoin, told me, referring =
to the overlapping sets of Doge boosters. Ta says she?s close internet frie=
nds with the anonymous man behind the uber-bro Twitter account @WSBChairman=
, but that her general impression of many subreddits??Gen Z and Millennial =
white guys pumping each other?s bets??isn?t her ?thing.?
Despite the concerning wave of horror stories this past year about young pe=
ople who bet big on trades and lost it all, there?s some early evidence tha=
t the ?just got a driver?s license, time to race my new car? energy of newb=
ie investors is calming down. While retail-trading volume remains high, it =
tapered substantially in spring from its heights during the Robinhood-GameS=
top craze?even though more than 10 million new brokerage accounts were open=
ed by individual investors in the first half of 2021, according to estimate=
s by JMP Securities. And the Schwab ?Generation Investor? survey found that=
while 44 percent of newcomers were trading with a short-term rather than l=
ong-term attitude in 2020, only 28 percent said they would follow a similar=
strategy in 2021. ?I come from an immigrant family and we always have a sc=
arcity mindset,? Kinjal Shah, a 27-year-old senior associate at Blockchain =
Capital, told me. ?So I?ve never treated trading or investing like a game.?
Justin Speak: What GameStop has to do with the parable of the rich fool
?Don?t get me wrong,? Shah said a few moments later. ?I?ve seen my crypto g=
o down like 80 percent, but now I?ve got abs of steel and nothing can reall=
y bother me.? I joked that she sounded like a Robinhood dude talking about =
his ?diamond hands? as he bravely tolerates heavy (but, hopefully, temporar=
y) losses. She laughed and responded: ?Well, you want to have fun! And so m=
aybe there is a little bit of dopamine to it.? Though she?s found the crypt=
o community to be generally welcoming, she recently co-launched the Komoreb=
i Collective, which aims to create a network for investing in female and no=
nbinary crypto entrepreneurs. ?The one thing I want to put out into the wor=
ld,? she told me before hanging up, ?is I want people to see that there are=
online spaces and communities and people who treat retail investing as a l=
ittle bit of in-between?where it can be fun, but you?re also taking it very=
seriously and everybody can do it.?
Carlson, the wealth manager, for his part, guessed that the solid majority =
of new money coming in from the investing boom is still going into relative=
ly safe investments: stable stocks, 401(k)s, mutual funds, index funds, and=
broad exchange-traded funds known as ETFs. ?Are there some who are YOLOing=
? Sure,? he said. ?But it?s probably not a large percentage.?
No matter their profiles, in the end, people have to earn enough to save in=
order for them to invest. This trading boom among the masses?for all of it=
s pizzazz?has clear limits given that, in 2019, roughly 44 percent of worke=
rs were employed in low-wage jobs that pay median annual wages of $18,000. =
Maybe there?d be fewer big bets taken in America?s hustle economy if more p=
eople were financially secure in the first place. As Maxine Waters, the cha=
ir of the House Committee on Financial Services, said during a congressiona=
l hearing about the Robinhood saga, ?Many Americans feel that the system is=
stacked against them and, no matter what, Wall Street always wins.?
Populist investors taking on another hedge fund, Reddit making moves to ban=
the foulest language of some traders on its platform, or Congress adopting=
an Elizabeth Warren?style revamp that seeks a more carefully democratized =
investing world would likely be welcomed by different constituencies. But n=
one of it would address that underlying corrosion of social mobility that s=
o many Americans feel. Changing that reality probably requires a fresh set =
of cultural modifications around sharing, class, clout, race, and whether a=
nyone deserves low wages?something that, at least for now, is still achingl=
y out of reach.=20
